Meet Our Latest Winners!

I had a lovely surprise this month with an email from Live Radio to say I had won 2 tickets to visit the This Morning Live show at the Birmingham NEC for either a Saturday or a Sunday. I had entered the competition through the Prize Finder website. It was a lovely excuse for a weekend trip, and was something we wouldn’t usually have done. I love This Morning, and we had a brilliant time wandering around the stalls trying out the free gin samples! I haven’t won a competition for a while so it was exciting to get the email, and the tickets were worth £27.50 each so it was really worth it.

I’ve had quite a lucky year so far with a few good wins including a pass for the local trampoline park and a £25 garden centre voucher from local competitions. I also won a dvd set from a blog post Rafflecopter which I found on Prizefinder but my big win was an amazing Nighthawk. A 12v electric ride on for kids (and big kids) from a Facebook competition run by the makers, Roleplay. It arrived in a huge, heavy box and is really quite stunning. It’s like a sledge on wheels. My little boy is absolutely delighted and so am I. I’ve been using Prizefinder for a few years now and had a few small wins and a couple of bigger ones but this is definitely the best so far. It has certainly encouraged me to make sure I check the closing competitions each day so I don’t miss one.

Although most Instagram competitions usually are won by bloggers, I managed to win a pack of gluten free, dairy free protein powders. The company also send me a receipes cards and I will try make vegan “cheese” dip and chocolate bars. This powder is made from peas and this is my favourite green. I am very very happy with this prize.
It is not right that only bloggers win on Instagram, something should be done about it. Let hope there is a future for average compers like most of us here. I will try ack promoters to make life draw winner if possible.

I was lucky enough, thanks to the Prizefinder, to find a very low entry comp on Twitter and what you had to do was to name any item in the special little Easter video from the site's catalogue list - having seen the previous entry, I just changed the order, and relisted the items with some changes, and received a message that my entry was a winner along with the other entry - WE WERE THE ONLY TWO ENTRANTS! Social media can be overloaded with entries so it was very surprising, and we got to choose our prizes from all the items - I chose a really snazzy laptop backpack and it has its own little waterproof cover, charging port, and plenty of space for me to take to work every single day! Worth nearly £40 too! Thank you Prizefinder!!

I checked my emails recently and saw I had received tickets to the festival All points East. I don’t remember exactly where I applied for this competition (obviously via Prize Finder) but it was a great surprise.

I had the tickets already so we just had to rock up on Sunday. The bands were pretty good and we had a few drinks to celebrate. Overall a great prize.

It’s so important to ensure you read your emails as I may have missed them but thankfully I didn’t. I’m now having room ramble on to fill the minimum 500 words for this post. It’s lovely weather outside right now, sunshine in London but I’m stuck in the middle seat on the train next to a man who keeps sniffing them swallowing really loudly. There was no men like this at All Points East.

In my 3rd win since starting comping on prizefinder last November I was luck to win a National Express prize consisting of 2 VIP seat tickets for the England v Czech Republic game & free coach travel also. We set off on a coach from Birmingham & straight to the car park right outside Wembley. It was a fantastic day & was my son's 1st time at Wembley, to win 5-0 was the icing on the cake. I have been delighted with prize winnings so far & keep dreaming to get lucky & bag a family holiday in the future. Fingers crossed!

I nearly missed this prize. I got one of those annoying emails saying congratulations you have won 10% off (muck boots) I nearly deleted it but had a quick look and my name was in a list of one of 5 winners yet they hadn’t contacted me directly. I emailed them and they confirmed I could choose any boot from their site. The boots are expensive outdoor boots and I chose a £160 pair of arctic boots as I need good winter boots Now I’m looking forward to winter to try them ! I will always check these emails now.

My other half is a keen gardener so I'm always looking to find comps with tickets to Shows or properties with an interesting garden
We are only an hour away from Malvern but had never been to the Malvern Spring Show so this year I decided to enter every competiton I could find with tickets for prizes. Classic FM turned up trumps and I received an email on the 2nd to say I'd won tickets for the opening day,Thursday.9th
Despite damp and cold weather we had an enjoyable day made even better by knowing it was a win.

Unknowingly we met 3 weeks before Blackpool Towers 75th Anniversary and we spent my 16th birthday in the resort and had a ball. I wrote of our experience together then & our love of this great British institution. We have made countless visits over the years with children and grandchildren for days on the beach and magical nights looking at the famous lights. I was lucky enough to win an invitation to an afternoon tea at the Tower 50 years later and we decided to make a night of it by staying at the Imperial Hotel, altogether a first class prize!

Another prize through PrizeFinder. A selection of teas from OffBlak in a selection of different flavours including jasmine and orange, which is a green tea, blueberry and mint, which is a herbal tea and spicy orange and ginger, which is a black tea. They are all flavours that I have never tried before, so I am looking forward to trying them. I might try them with a piece of homemade cake or alternatively I might take them on holiday with me, as they will be easy to carry and you can't beat a nice cup of tea while relaxing on your balcony.
